Women of Confidence... Food to Boost One's Confidence

Don't ask me what the ingredients in there were.
Basta ibang klase, parang liverspread na hindi liver.
Yesterday, I made a post about Tupperware's 10 Women of Confidence which my sister was blessed to have become part of.

Posing artista
My sister told me na "feeling artista siya" when they had the photoshoot for the feature on them at Celebrity Living Magazine.  Pinasuot daw siya ng damit at sapatos "libo" and halaga.  Alam niya, kasi may tag price pa!!!

Naloka daw siya sa tagal ng photoshoot- super daming poses at shots... only to find out that the magazine contained only one picture of each of them. Ha! Ha! Ha!!!!

During their video shoot, she was made to wear a different set of clothes plus shoesesss! Mamahalin uli, kasi may tag price din.  (If you were wondering, hindi pinauwi sa kanila ang kanilang mga costume!!!)

I also mentioned in my post that the awarding ceremonies was held at Sweet Bella Cafe in Glorietta. This one's a nice cafe talaga!!!  I couldn't help but take pictures of all the food that we had.  Busog na busog ang mata ko, bundat pa ako!  (sorry naman, Pinay ako, aminado akong mahilig akong magpichur ng food)

Sosyal na canapes. Di ko kinaya ang lasa. Di ko naintindihan.
Canape!
Mini veggie burgers

Ang palaman:  olives, tomato and grilled eggplant

Eto ang gusto ko: Shrimp Scampi. 
Jologs moment: We were initially served the canapes and the mini burgers. (Yun ba yung tinatawag na hors d'oeuvres?).  Next was the shrimp scampi.  Since there was four of us in the table, we were hesitant to eat the shrimp (Pare-pareho naming di naintindihan ang lasa ng mga hinain sa amin).  Tapos, being typical Filipinos, nagkahiyaan kami sa isang piraso.  A few moments later, the waiter came and took the scampi with the lone shrimp survivor.  Napanganga ako. Sayang, yun lang ang kilala kong food eh. Hay!!!

Couldn't help but rearrange the food so that they'd look happy
Hee heee
Smile Canape!!
Salad with raspberry sauce
I thought the dressing was caesar's or something with mayo, but I was wrong, this one was super sarap!!! Una, when it was served to me, I asked if it would be possible to only have the greens, sans the dressing.  The waiter obliged naman.  Then I tasted my sister's salad. It's raspberry sauce daw, basta walang mayo, wala ding raw egg! Ang sarap talaga! Nakakahiya namang ibalik at sabihin ko, "ay, yung may dressing na lang, kuya." Diba?

Main course (walang kanin?)
That's mashed potato, two piece of brocolli, a slice of baby carrot (julienned), cream dory in white sauce with overcooked greens (Kung ano man 'yung green na 'yun eh hindi ko alam, masarap naman) and roasted chicken with gravy. Sayang, walang breast part, so I wasn't able to enjoy the chicken.  Naisip ko na naman yung naiwang isang pirasong hipon...

Ah of course, dessert!
This was was guava jelly something cake.
 Lasang bayabas talaga. Matamis naman na bayabas.
Awarding.  Artistang artista diba? May bouquet pa!
Hay, paminsan-minsan, ang sarap talagang maging sosyal at makatikim ng sosyal na pagkain na di ko alam ang pangalan. Hahahah!
